Okay, so yesterday was just a crazy day. Got there crazy early as expected it to be a mad rush to get in but it really wasn't - including queue times, searches and figuring out where we were seated, it took less than 15 minutes. So as we had loads of time to burn, only natural that we went for fish & chips. :lol:

 

Firstly, Veronic DiCaire was outstanding - she received a standing ovation and she was so good, I tweeted her last night to tell her. And she responded to me this morning! Seriously, she exceeded my expectations by a mile - and they were already high based on what I'd read. I thought it really lovely though that every stood for her when she was finished - naturally, I was one of the first. :lol:

 

Onto the show itself, there are no words to describe the feelings you feel when you first experience this woman - it's so much more than awe, it's an experience and one that I will never forget for as long as I live. I love her music, I love her voice and I love her spirit - but goodness me, there is nothing like experiencing it all in one setting at the same time.

 

The opener is so effective - the stage goes dark and you hear her doing her wonderful riffing before you then hear..."The whispers in the morning..." and everybody goes crazy. And then you don't see her until the first chorus starts with "cos I'm your laaaaaadyyyyyy".

 

She did both Le Ballet and Pour Que Tu M'aimes Encore - both went down really well. With Le Ballet - I just have no words. People were shocked but literally loving every moment like I was, to see her performing in such a way was a revelation. And then when PQTME came on, loads of people all over the arena got the lights on their phones going - it was quite a moment.

 

How Does A Moment Last Forever was really a revelation to me - it's a beautiful record but doesn't really go anywhere. However, I love what she does with it in a live performance setting, her vocal inflections work really well.

 

Think Twice went down well as did It's All Coming Back To Me Now - the vocals on both are straight out the 90s. But the song that probably went down best of all out of her big hits with the crowd was Because You Loved Me - pure mad love from the moment it came on until the end.

 

OMG River Deep Mountain High - people were going mad for it. It's so different hearing that live than it is watching it on a video. Proper crowd pleaser.

 

The crowd stayed with her all evening, on their feet for 90% of the night - I was really taken aback by it, a fantastic crowd from start to finish. Negatives - she talks a LOT which I'm fine with but she keeps cutting the playlist and it bothers me. I really wanted to witness Loved Me Back To Life live and it still surprises me that A New Day Has Come hasn't been part of the playlist. There were some funny moments (she kept talking about sticky toffee pudding :lol:) but I'd rather less chat and more songs. Also, Love Can Move Mountains is just a train wreck - it's not pleasant to witness and it makes me cringe watching it live.

 

I love her infinitely more than I already did. Be under no illusion, THAT voice is still very much in pristine condition with immense power and control and she is a commanding live performer. A night I will never forget.

You can hear my friend in the background, she's also in awe as you can tell. :lol:

 

Wonderful to hear you give this report back! Did Celine indeed sing a snippet of Chandelier again or is that a confusion?

I think her remarks before Recovering last night were the most emotional, vulnerable comments yet. And how Pink took the time to try to understand her, you can tell that still really moves her. I didn't know she looks up to the sky a lot when she sings that, or maybe even other sonsg where she does that. Thanks for that description. But yes, I heard what she talked about before Recovering. I hated how she said she tried to be strong for her kids and go on like nothing happened. What that's modeling for her sons is that we don't address/acknowledge our feelings, we just sweep them under the rug and go on as if nothing happened. That's often not possible, and emotions that we don't express show themselves in other ways. She has singing, thankfully, but I hope the boys have drawing, or writing, or skating or whatever it is that gets that out of them. I also really really really really reeeeeeeeeeally loved the part where she was talking about how wonderful maturity is because it makes us appreciate what we have, but never lose the child we have inside us. I loved that. Don't be surprised if that becomes my new signature. I need to take down her exact words in that instant because I want to quote it, but that moment really touched me too.

 

I guess trying to protect your children is the most natural way a mother would react in that situation, especially with the twins being so young. Was a very honest powerful thing to say.

My LORD! You can see AND hear her singing right to Rene. Look how she looks up to the sky throughout the song. Gorgeous performance.

Ok I cried! I just watched this and thought it was so touching. She looks up at the sky and says` Tell him I love him! I lost it!!!

There is a small chance I will get a Meet & Greet with Celine! :w00t:

 

CelinesDIVO5, who will be with me at the concert, informed me today that he contacted those who are responsible for arranging M&G. I do not remember the details right now and chances are we will NOT get the M&G and I am prepared for that, but how exciting it is to even think I would meet Celine in person! Also, I would like to publicly thank CelinesDIVO5 for seizing the opportunity, it was such an amazing gesture! :yes: :)

Good luck and enjoy tomorrow!! I know I will sound broken but I won't be me if I don't say this. Even though the chance of a M&G is small if you have a chance please tell someone about our DVD demands. Remember I've had a M&G so I know how fast it is. The only chance I would have had which I didn't take because I was in shock was while I spoke with her brother. I quite regret that now but at the time it never even crossed my mind
